Nepal vs Italy LIVE Score, T20 World Cup 2026: NEP v ITA, team news, live-streaming info
Hello and welcome to Sportstar’s live coverage of the T20 World Cup 2026 match between Nepal and Italy, which is being played at the Wankhede Stadium in Mumbai.
MATCH PREVIEW
Nepal won hearts but fell agonisingly short of stunning England in its opening fixture of the ongoing T20 World Cup. With thousands of Nepali fans thronging the Wankhede Stadium on Sunday evening, there was no dearth of support for the Rohit Paudel-led team.
When it takes on Italy at the same venue on Thursday, Nepal will be hoping to get its campaign back on track against a team which is also coming off a defeat against Scotland.
While Nepal captain Paudel believes that the game against England has given his team a lot of confidence, Italy will be without its skipper, Wayne Madsen, who is recovering after dislocating his shoulder in its tournament opener. In his absence, Harry Manenti will lead the Italian side, which hopes to bounce back and prove its mettle.
